  1. Cards score first on a sixty-yard punt return in the first quarter, then get a field goal to take a 10-0 lead before a penalty on fourth down kept a Nicholls drive going and then on another fourth down the Nicholls punter fumbled the snap then picked it up and ran for a first down. That play led to a touchdown with a little over a minute and a half left in the half to close the gap to three points.
  2. Volleyball closes out regular season with a win at Nicholls guaranteeing a winning record at 15-13 and 7-9 in conference. Cards will qualify for conference tournament.
  3. Cards take on Nicholls tomorrow at 3 PM in their final home game of the season. A win will place Lamar with a fourth-place finish in their own control and a shot at tie for third place depending on SFA's finish. A loss may push Lamar down to as far as eighth.
  4. After a terrible first half, Lamar played Texas even in the second half although Texas rested their starters for a lot of it. The big difference was probably that Davis play most of the half, picking up only one more foul and scoring ten points in the half. Sabrea Dean added thirteen points for the game. Final score Texas 95 - Lamar 58. The ladies will return to action Friday the 22nd at SMU.
  5. Texas obliterating Lamar throughout the first half. Davis picked up two fouls in seven minutes of playing time which definitely didn't help. At the half Texas is up 51-14.
  6. Women return to action tomorrow at #4 Texas for a 7 PM start.
  7. Lamar falls by twenty-six, 97-71. Marmolejos scores 23, followed by 15 from Jackson and 13 from Holifield. Lamar doesn't have the player that can consistently drive and score. A&M had a distinct size advantage at the guards. As bad as this score was, I think this is a better team than last year overall, but this team could use a Terry Anderson type of player. Gambrell hasn't made it into a game yet. Is he hurt or something else?
  8. A&M woke up shortly after the previous post and started hitting three-pointers. 10 of 17 in the first half compared to one of eight for Lamar. Rebounding and field goal percentage the big difference as A&M is up 50-29 at the half.
  9. Early action Lamar playing solid defense and are up 3-0. Holifield looks impressive as he jumped for the opening tip, has a steal and has brought the ball up the court at least one time. A big man that is coordinated and can handle the ball.
  10. Men take on A&M at 7 PM this evening. Will be interesting to see how the new scorers do against tough competition.
  11. As the day ends UIW is in the driver's seat for the championship sitting at 5-0 with games left at SFA and Commerce. They should be favored in both of those games but as long as they win one of the two, they will get the berth to the playoffs. SLU buried NWST and has one conference game left guaranteeing themselves of second place. SFA lost to Commerce so the next six teams all have three conference losses. HCU defeated Nicholls. With today's results both of Lamar's remaining games have significance as if they win both Lamar can still finish third.
  12. Lamar commits another turnover in the second half and the Lamar offense can't keep up with UIW. Final score UIW 40 - Lamar 20. Didn't help that Coleman got hurt. Lamar had more passing attempts than rushing plays. Two games remaining this year.
  13. Volleyball gets another five-set win over McNeese to get to 14-12 on the season and 6-8 in conference with a chance to finish .500 in the conference, Two matches next week on the road at McNeese and then Nicholls.
  14. UIW makes a good last minute drive to get a field goal as time runs out in the half to take a 20-13 lead into the half. UIW will have the ball to start the second half.
  15. Lamar defense creates a fumble for UIW with just under two minutes left in the half at the UIW 14-yard line. Lamar converts the turnover into a touchdown with 52 seconds left in the half to draw within four points as the fail to convert the extra point Score 17-13 UIW on top.
  16. Lamar starts a decent drive but fumbles again at the UIW 47 yard line. We'll see if the defense can hold again.
  17. UIW responds with a three play seventy-five-yard touchdown drive. Lamar fumbles the kickoff return but then holds UIW without a score.
  18. Lamar scores with a touchdown pass with 6:08 left in the first quarter to take a 7-3 lead. Something weird today, Lamar has only run the ball twice and Coleman has only missed one pass attempt.
  19. Lamar plays at UIW Saturday at 2 PM. Do the Cards have a chance to pull an upset?
  20. Another week of conference only contests. Unless Lamar would upset UIW this week the conference race is virtually over as UIW would be at 5-0 with games against SFA and Commerce left and little chance they would lose both of those. SLU takes on NWST which should be a win. Nicholls plays HCU and Commerce plays SFA.
  21. Volleyball defeated Nicholls in a five set match to improve the conference record to 5-8 and put an overall winning record and a position in the conference tournament in reach with three matches remaining two with McNeese and a repeat meeting with Nicholls.
  22. Somewhat disappointing soccer season comes to an end with a loss in the opening round of the conference tournament.
  23. Final score Lamar 113 - PQ 42. This is the kind of win you hope for when playing a lower division school. Defense played ok, but what was the caliber of the competition. Everyone that was suited up played and all scored. Lamar had six players in double figures, led by 20 from Holifield. White had fourteen rebounds. Cards had eight turnovers total for the night.
  24. Not sure, he had played a little but it's hard to say if the new guys are better right now. As lopsided as this game is it is hard to say what the caliber of the Lamar newcomers are.
  25. Lamar up by thirty at the half 53-23. Beaumont native Holifield is leading all scorers with fifteen points including three three-pointers. Marmolejos another newcomer has twelve points. Only four turnovers in the first half.
